The director Neill Blomkamp, den man von Kinofilmen wie „District 9“, „Elysium“ und „Chappie“ kennt, macht derzeit mit seinen Oats Studios von sich reden. Über YouTube hat er einige sehr gelungene Kurzfilme veröffentlicht, darunter „Rakka“, „Firebase“ oder „Zygote“. Die Filme können kostenlos über den official YouTube channel of Oats Studios can be viewed. Neill Blomkamp's next project is virtual reality.
The director has announced that his team is currently working on a twelve-minute VR film based on the Unity engine. The 3D engine is normally used for video games. So it will not be one of the usual 360-degree films. The viewer is supposed to get the impression of being directly on location. However, no information about the content is available at the moment. Since Neill Blomkamp is known for his sci-fi works, it could go in this direction. A name for the VR film is also missing and so far only HTC Vive has been mentioned as a supported platform. Whether other VR headsets will be considered is still unclear.
